Switzerland has agreed to participate in a pan European defence research project under its ‘Framework for Co operation’ with the European Defence Agency (EDA) for the first time, the organisation announced on 6 April. The country will join the EDA’s Protection of Autonomous Systems against Enemy Interference (PASEI) programme, which aims to study the vulnerability of unmanned systems to external manipulation and investigate potential countermeasures. EDA chief executive Jorge Domecq said, “The PASEI project, which deals with the protection of autonomous systems against enemy interference, is an important topic on which European co operation makes sense, even beyond EU borders.
